The report notes that this first SACC peer review is the first time the TSCA program is making non-TSCA confidential business information (CBI) available to peer reviewers. According to the report, EPA requested comment on the process, integration, and clarity related to the use of the CBI that was provided. EPA provided SACC members TSCA CBI training, and they were permitted to review the full studies as part of their peer review. The report states that upon a comparison of the full (unredacted) studies with the redacted studies, SACC reached consensus that the nature of the redactions do not materially impact the draft risk characterization. SACC agreed that the summary statistics provided in the unredacted version of the reproduction/development study were consistent with the animal data in the redacted version of the study. SACC made recommendations to EPA about how to process CBI information for use by SACC and the public for future assessments. |
